Athens-based Metal force DESERT NEAR THE END has released the official video for “Half-Learned And Long Forgotten”, taken from their critically praised album “Tides Of Time”, available now via Theogonia Records.
“Half-Learned And Long Forgotten” delves deep into themes of fading knowledge and the heavy burden of half-truths etched into the fabric of time. Merging relentless riffs, haunting melodies, and a powerful lyrical narrative, the track stands as a prime example of the band’s signature blend of Power/Thrash Metal with the raw ferocity of Death and Black Metal.
This new visual chapter expands the cinematic universe of “Tides Of Time”, exploring legacy, loss, and the resistance against historical decay. The track isn’t just music—it’s a statement for all who carry the weight of forgotten truths and fight to reclaim meaning in a fractured world.
DESERT NEAR THE END is a five-piece Metal band from Athens, Greece, formed in 2010. Drawing influence from the great Power/Thrash bands of the 90s, they have evolved their sound into a unique blend of Power/Thrash Metal infused with extreme elements from Death and Black Metal.
